Abstract :
In this paper, dielectric properties of glucose solutions, blood and skin have been measured in the frequency range from 28 to 93 GHz. These measurements have shown that using millimeter waves it is possible to realize nondestructive a real-time determination small content of sugar (glucose) content in so solutions and one drop of blood, as well as to develop after some additional investigations noninvasive method for glucose content monitoring through skin.
